At Saras Process, we specialise in on-site printing cylinder repair for a wide range of presses and industrial machines. Our unique Metal on Metal electroplating system allows us to restore damaged or corroded cylinders quickly, accurately, and without the need to remove them from your press or production line.

Common Cylinder Damage We Repair:

We can repair a wide variety of damage types, including:

  • Impact damage from screws, Allen keys, or tools
  • Surface wear from ball bearing failure and broken damper bearings
  • Low spots caused by sheet jams
  • Lock-up edge damage from misaligned grippers
  • General surface corrosion or pitting

Using our proprietary Saras corrosion inhibitor, followed by selective metal plating, we restore damaged areas back to original surface dimensions. The repaired cylinders are fully functional and ready to return to production with no compromise in performance.

On-Site Cylinder Repairs for All Press Types

We carry out on-site electroplating and metal finishing on all types of printing and converting equipment, including:

  • Single-colour sheet-fed presses
  • Multi-unit lithographic presses
  • Web presses
  • Flexographic presses
  • Drums, cylinders, and calendar bowls used in extrusion, coating, metallising, laminating, and converting industries

Our mobile service allows us to perform repairs at your premises with minimal disruption. There’s no need to dismantle the press—only basic access is required, such as removing guards or trays. This keeps downtime to a minimum and eliminates costly transport or machine reassembly.

We serve a broad base of customers across the printing sector, including:

  • General commercial printers
  • Newspaper and magazine printers
  • Book printers
  • Packaging and label printers
